GREY'S ANATOMY

3x01: Time Has Come Today

Original Airdate: 9/21/2006

Written by: Shonda Rhimes

Directed by: Daniel Minahan


MEREDITH: In the OR, time loses all meaning. In the midst of sutures and saving lives, the clock ceases to matter. 15 minutes. 15 hours. Inside the OR, the best surgeons make time fly. Outside the OR however, time takes pleasure in kicking our asses. For even the strongest of us, it seems to play tricks. Slowing down, hovering...until it freezes, leaving us stuck in a moment, unable to move in one direction or the other.

ALEX (through the door of the bathroom, to Izzie lying on the floor, unresponsive): Izzie. Izzie come on!

GEORGE: Okay, she's been in there all night. We have to do something.

ALEX: Yeah.

MEREDITH: Yeah.

CHRISTINA: Yeah.

MEREDITH: Why are you all looking at me?

CHRISTINA: Well this is familiar territory to you.

MEREDITH: There is nothing familiar about this. Unfamiliar. Denny died. The man she loves died.

CHRISTINA: Yeah, but you're all dark and twisty inside.

MEREDITH: "Dark and twisty?"

CHRISTINA: The mother with the Altzheimers thing, and the father that you don't talk to.

ALEX: The tequila thing, and the inappropriate men thing...

GEORGE: You are dark and twisty inside Meredith, and now Izzie is dark and twisty inside.

MEREDITH: So now all the sudden I'm the president of people with crappy lives?

GEORGE: Seriously we have to do something. Someone has to go in there.

(We see Izzie, still unresponsive and staring into space, still lying on the floor in her prom dress.)

Richard (voice over): The seven years you spend here as a surgical resident will be the best and worst of your life. Look around you. Say hello to your competition. (Izzie sits up and stares at the slowly opening door.)

(Flashback to the mixer.)

IZZIE (introducing herself to Alex): Hi. Izzie Stephens. Washington.

ALEX: Alex Karev, Iowa.

IZZIE: This is nice, right? They threw a mixer for the new interns?

ALEX: Yeah. It's just an excuse to get us all happy and drunk before they t*rture us

(The camera moves around the room, spotlighting various interns.)

ALEX: What program are you in?

IZZIE: Surgery.

ALEX: Seriously?

IZZIE: Seriously. What?

ALEX: I- I picked you for gynie or PEDS or something.

IZZIE: You don't think I can be a surgeon? I can be a surgeon.

ALEX: Surgery's hard core.

IZZIE: I'm hard core.

ALEX: You won't last the first year, babe.

(Back to Izzie in the bathroom. George has come in, and is lying in front of her.)

GEORGE: Izzie.

IZZIE: What?

GEORGE: Maybe you should change your clothes. Maybe you'd want to wear something more comfortable.

IZZIE: Stop it.

GEORGE: I know. Izzie...

IZZIE: Stop it, I mean it. Stop talking. There is nothing to talk about. Do you understand me? There is nothing to discuss.

GEORGE: I'm so sorry.

IZZIE: Yeah, me too.

----------

(Back at Seattle Grace.)

MORGUE GUY: So you're a surgeon?

BAILEY: Yes.

MORGUE GUY: Usually they don't send a surgeon for this.

BAILEY: What do we need to... How do I... How do we do this?

MORGUE GUY: You just gotta ID the body before I take him to the funeral home. So I don't take the wrong guy.

BAILEY: That happens?

MORGUE GUY: You wouldn't believe how many times I take the wrong guy.

(Denny's body inside a body bag is wheeled out on a stretcher. Bailey checks that it's him.)

BAILEY: That's him. That's Denny Duquette.

MORGUE GUY: Great, let's load him up. And sign here (to bailey)

BAILEY: When's the funeral?

MORGUE GUY: No funeral. The family asked to have the body sent to Memphis.

(As they go to take Denny away.)

BAILEY: Wait. Wait, wait.

(She talks to Denny through the plastic.)

BAILEY: I'm sorry. I'm so, so sorry.

----------

(Back at Meredith's house. Meredith is making sandwiches as Christina sits on the counter.)

CHRISTINA: Why are we making sandwiches again?

MEREDITH: It's what you do when someone dies. You cook.

CHRISTINA: Yeah. I know what to do when someone dies. I am a jew. I know food and death. It's Shivah

MEREDITH: Is it Shivah even if she's Catholic?

CHRISTINA: Well Shivah's what I know how to do. So yeah. It's Shivah. And if we're sitting Shivah for Denny, then we should order in cause making sandwiches is not the same as cooking.

MEREDITH: Sandwiches are comfort food.

CHRISTINA: What's wrong with you?

MEREDITH: Everything with me is fine. It's Izzie we're worried about.

CHRISTINA: What did you do?

MEREDITH: Denny died. Burke got shot. Let's just have some perspective and remember that what is a tiny slightly small...

CHRISTINA: Whatever spit it out.

MEREDITH: I lost my panties last night.

----------

(Cut to the trailer, where Addison is doing Laundry. She pulls a pair of black panties out of the drier, folds them and seals them in a ziplock baggie, which she throws in her purse.)

(Back at the hospital.)

Derek sits on the stairs, his head in his hands.

CHIEF: Back already?

DEREK: I never left. I did a craniotomy on a ruptured saccular aneurism.

CHIEF: I've been here all night too. I wanted to see the autopsy on Duquette.

DEREK: Yeah. You seen Meredith? (corrects himself) Dr. Grey. Have you seen Dr. Grey?

CHIEF: Why? What's going on with you?

DEREK: Could you get someone to cover my rounds for me so I can take care of some stuff?

BAILEY: Are you free Dr. Shepherd? There's an incoming head trauma, and the pit's overcrowded with early flu season.

DOCTOR: Giselle Toussant. 42-year-old-woman. Unrestrained driver of a car that hit the railing. Ejected from the car.

OMAR: We were coming to the ER. We were both sick. We couldn't shake this flu thing. She was better so I let her drive.

GISELLE: Omar? (referring to her husband)

OMAR: Giselle? Honey?

GISELLE: Oh where are we? Oh yeah. are we dancing?

OMAR: We had an accident.

DEREK: We have a dural laceration. She's leaking spinal fluid. Let's get an OR ready, ok?

GISELLE: The dancing's so beautiful.

OMAR: You're beautiful (He begins coughing.)

GEORGE: He's burning up.

DEREK: Somebody get him bed! Let's get her up to the OR right away.

----------

(Down in the pit.)

Paramedics bring in a baby, and Alex responds

ALEX: What's going on?

PARAMEDIC: Premature newborn found in a trashcan at Turner prep school. The Umbilical cord's still attached.

ALEX: You didn't start an IV. He's dehydrated.

PARAMEDIC: Couldn't find a vein.

ALEX: I need to get IV access. Get me an I.O. needle and I need a neonatal intubation kit. Olivia go MOVE!

OLIVIA: They pulled me from the floor. I'm just down here helping with the flu overflow. Alex how old is that baby?

(Alex grabs the baby and starts at a run for anywhere that's not covered in flu germs.)

OLIVIA: Wait, wait what are you doing?

ALEX: If you think I'm going to leave this sick premature infant in the OR...

OLIVIA: He has to be admitted. You can't just take him...

ALEX: Just page Addison Shepherd. Tell her to meet me in the NICU.

----------

ADDISON: Karev?

ALEX: Premature newborn with Petechia.

ADDISON: What's his platelet count?

ALEX: 17,000.

ADDISON: 17,000? Did you transfuse platelets?

ALEX: Yes but it didn't help.

ADDISON: Where's the mother?

ALEX: I don't know.

ADDISON: Dr. Karev, I'm not asking you where the mother is for my health. I expect you to use your brain. Where is the mother?

ALEX: I don't know. The baby was found in a trash can at a high school.

ADDISON: They left him in a trash can?

ALEX: He's got some inner abdominal bleeding on the CT. You wanna run some more tests? Dr. Shepherd?

ADDISON: I need a stat ultrasound and for you to infuse 2 grams of IVIG if there is no cranial bleeding. And find out where the mother is, I need to test for maternal platelet antibodies.

ALEX: Can't you just do surgery to fix the abdominal bleeding?

ADDISON: If I wanted to k*ll him, I could do that...Damn it. Who does this?

OLIVIA: Dr. Montgomery-Shepherd? There's some people here... about the baby.

GEORGE: The clot's been evacuated, are we ready to close?

DEREK: I just want to make sure there are no remaining bone fragments

GEORGE: As well as can be expected.

DEREK: It' never gets easier, you know...losing patient. A little less shocking I guess, but it never gets any easier.

GEORGE: Izzie was in love with him. Denny wasn't just a patient. They were in love.

----------

(Back at Meredith's house.)

CHRISTINA: You had sex with Derek in an exam room at the prom?

MEREDITH: Yes.

CHRISTINA: Last night, you and Shepherd did it?

MEREDITH: Yes.

CHRISTINA: You and McDreamy did the nasty-nasty?

MEREDITH: Christina!

CHRISTINA: I'm not judging. I'm just trying to wrap my mind around it. I mean you're with Finn. He's with Addison.

MEREDITH: He's married to Addison.

CHRISTINA: Yeah. Well what did Derek say?

MEREDITH: He said "Meredith, what does this mean?"

CHRISTINA: Ok, he has sex with you and he's standing there all McGuilty and all he can say for himself is "what does this mean?" What does this mean?

MEREDITH: I don't know.

CHRISTINA: Are you going to go back to Finn? Is Shepherd leaving his wife?

MEREDITH: I just...

Meredith has a flashback to being on a Carosel at about the age of 5, her mother is screaming her name from the sidewalk. Ellis is talking to Chief.

ELLIS: Richard you were to tell Adele...

RICHARD: I can't...

ELLIS: I was to tell Thatcher. That is what we said

They continue to argue, and Ellis pleads Richard not to leave her, but he does. He's gone back to Adele.

----------

(Back to the present day. In Chief's office.)

CHIEF: You didn't have to make an appointment to see me! I'm your husband

ADELE: An appointment seemed to be the best way to get your undivided attention, because here you are.

CHIEF: Adele I...

ADELE: Sit down. We have an appointment.

BAILEY: Chief the IDC is here we had a couple come in this morning. Derek just finished a craniotomy on the wife, but the husband, he's got severe flu symptoms, swollen lymph nodes, buboes. Turns out they came in contact with the plague?

CHIEF: The plague? I'm sorry Adele I need to deal with this.

----------

(Addison walks in on four teenage girls and their parents, who are bickering.)

SHANNON'S MOTHER: Shannon gets straight A's.

MAN: So what my daughter gets a B in math and suddenly she's birthing babies in toilet stalls?

ADDISON: I'm Dr. Montgomery-Shepherd. I've been treating the newborn. He has an emergent blood condition. And I need to know whose baby it is I'm dealing with.

WOMAN: We'd all like to know that. Sarah, talk.

SARAH: I don't know anything about any baby, mom.

OTHER GIRL: None of us do.

ADDISON: well one of you must know something, otherwise you wouldn't be here.

A MOTHER: Look, Our girls...the principal said they were the last people in the bathroom before the baby was found. So we just thought, before the police show up...

FATHER: One of you knows and you better confess. I don't want my Lisa messed up in this.

ANOTHER MOTHER: The police will be here soon.Can't you just do some sort of DNA test so the rest of us can get out of here?

ADDISON: DNA results take days and frankly I'm not concerned with the rest of you "out of here" If this baby isn't treated, he's going to die. Now I can do vaginal exams on each of the girls...

A MOTHER: My daughter is 14 years old. She's not sexually active. And I won't have you violating her body.

FATHER: you won't have it cause you know it's your kid. Listen you have my consent to do whatever it takes to prove my Lisa's innocence.

A MOTHER: You are a sick bastard, you know that?

ADDISON: A child's life is in jeopardy here. And it's not your consent that I need.

GIRL 1: We didn't do anything wrong.

GIRL 2: Yeah just cause we were in there doesn't mean it's our baby.

GIRL 3: Do we look like the kind of girls who get pregnant and throw their kids in the trash?

----------

DEREK (in the locker room) Nice work today O'Malley. Hey did meredith go home with Izzy?

GEORGE: Yeah Christina too, I'm headed there now.

DEREK: yeah, me too.

GEORGE: Oh great, it's just that...I don't know if Izzie's up for a lot of people.

DEREK: Well I'm gonna go see Meredith.

(He goes to open the door and a man in a sealed white suit greets him.)

MAN: Mr. Shepherd? Dr. O'Malley? I'm with the IDC is anyone else in this room?

DEREK: No

MAN: You performed the Surgery on Mrs. Toussant?

DEREK: Yes.

MAN: She and her husband were in close contact with a victim of the plague. She may have been exposed.

DEREK: Which means we may have been...

MAN: Yes.

DEREK: I gotta go. I can't do this.

MAN: We're waiting on the diagnosis on Mrs. Toussant. This room will be sealed off until we know the threat has been contained, and you're absolutely safe.

GEORGE: You're not saying that...

MAN: You can't leave. You're two are quarantined.

----------

BAILEY: I got this under control if you need to get back to your wife

RICHARD: No, no. I should check in with the IDC rep. I have to stay on top of my hospital. Keep me posted.

OMAR: Hello? I need help please. I know you can hear me. I see you standing out there in your giant white space suit.

(Omar is in quarantine as well. A guard stands at his door.)

BAILEY: Sir?

OMAR: yes!

MAN IN SUIT: No unauthorized personnel beyond this point, ma'am. IDC regulations.

BAILEY: Look I know he is under quarantine, but he's also a patient. And I will not ignore a patient.

OMAR: Hello out there. Thank God you can hear me. How's my wife?

BAILEY: My name is Dr. Bailey, Miranda Bailey. You're wife is out of surgery, she's quarantined in recovery but she's doning fine, now you were asking for help?

OMAR: You know how many days I been in here?

BAILEY: It's only been a few hours.

OMAR: Really? I'm losing it. I'm losing track of time.

BAILEY: Ok sir, you're sweating. I need you to sit down, get back in the bed.

OMAR: Well what about my wife? Can you find out about Giselle?

BAILEY: Like I said sir, she came out of surgery just fine, but I can check on her status again. You just stay calm until I get back.

OMAR: Wait! Don't go please. Just...just stay a minute.

BAILEY: Okay, I'm staying.

OMAR: Omar. Call me Omar.

BAILEY: Okay, Omar. I'm right here.

----------

(Meredith answers the door.)

CALLIE: I brought food.

MEREDITH: George isn't here

CALLIE: I know. He's in a quarantine cause of the thing. And I was worried about him and off duty and going crazy and then I though about Izzie, so I brought food.

MEREDITH: For the Shivah?

CALLIE: Are you going to let me in.

MEREDITH: Yeah.

CALLIE: Relax, I'm not going to bring it up. You and McDremamy and the sex. I'm not that person.

MEREDITH: Good.

CALLIE: Okay. Is it Shivah if Izzie's Catholic?

CHRISTINA: This thing that you're doing, Izzie, it's not healthy. I mean, you gotta take off that dress.

IZZIE: Tell me about Shivah.

CHRISTINA: It's something you do when someone dies. We did it for my grandmother.

IZZIE: How does it work?

CHRISTINA: People bring over food. Family comes over. It's supposed to help with the grieving. Honors the dead.

IZZIE: Sounds nice.

CHRISTINA: Yeah, seven days of no leather shoes, no work, no sex, no sitting on things higher than foot, no shaving, no...

IZZIE: What?

CHRISTINA: No clean clothes. Izzie this doesn't have to be Shivah.

IZZIE: You know they took his body away. I will never see him again. How would you feel if you never saw burke again? So we're sitting Shivah for Denny.

----------

ALEX: You want to see him?

GIRL: Who?

ALEX: The baby. Your baby.

GIRL 2: It's not our baby

FATHER: I've given you permission to do this, so what's the hang up?

ADDISON: The "hang up" sir, is if you're daughter doesn't want to do it, I can't force her.

MOTHER: They're 14. They're minors. We still have a say.

CHIEF: No you don't. If someone doesn't want to submit to a vaginal exam they don't have to. It's the law.

FATHER: Alright, that's it. I'm taking Lisa home.

CHIEF: You do that sir, and I will have you arrested before you hit the parking lot.

ADDISON: The law isn't the only thing in play here. If I do the vaginal exam and the girl's a virgin, there could be bleeding undue trauma, not to mention emotional stress.

MOTHER: Well if I had to take a guess as to who's kid won't have to worry about that...

MOTHER 2: What's that supposed to mean?

MOTHER: It'd just be nice if Karen had a curfew.

MOTHER 2: Oh at least she's not a shoplifter.

MOTHER: Oh Shannon stole one lipstick when she was 9. Get over it.

FATHER: I know for a fact that my lisa is a virgin.

MOTHER: And how do you know that?

FATHER: Because she's only 14 years old!

MOTHER: They're all 14.

----------

(Addison's flashback to when she and Derek were still in New York. She is distraught, Derek severe. He's found out about her affair with Mark.)

ADDISON: Derek... listen to me. Derek, you can't do this. we have to...

(He's carrying her stuff away, not listening to her.)

ADDISON: We have to talk about this. You have to give me a chance to Exlpain.

DEREK: No I don't.

ADDISON: What are you doing? Derek what are you doing with my clothes!? It was one time. I know that's what people say, I know that's what always gets said, but it... I don't even know how it happened, I don't know what I was thinking. He was just here!

DEREK: You screw my best friend and that's all you can say-he was just here?

(He throws Addison's clothes out into the street, it's pouring down rain.)

DEREK: Get out.

ADDISON: No.

DEREK: Get out

ADDISON: No I'm not going. We're going to talk about this.

DEREK: Get out of my house!

ADDISON: We're going to discuss this now. I'm holding my ground. We don't quit!

DEREK: Get out!

ADDISON: What are you doing?

(Derek pulls her up off her cowering place on the stairs and shoves her out the front door, the closes it, locking her out.)

ADDISON: Please... Please... Derek Please...

(He opens the door and lets her in.)

ADDISON: I'm sorry... I'm sorry. You have to give me a chance... you have to give me a chance to show you how sorry I am...

DEREK: Okay...

ADDISON: Okay?

DEREK: I'm gonna go, you stay. I'll get my clothes in the morning.

ADDISON: No, no, no... We can survive this. Derek, we can survive this. We're Addison and Derek.

DEREK: I look at you and I feel nauseous. We're not Derek and Addison any more.

ADDISON: If you go now... If you go now we're not going to get through this. If you go now, we don't have a chance... we don't have a chance.

(Derek turns and walks out of the door.)

----------

(Back to the flashback of the mixer. Christina is circling around Burke, who is giggling with a woman, sitting on a couch.)

CHRISTINA: Hi. You're... are you Preston Burke?

BURKE: Uh... yeah.

CHRISTINA: The Preston Burke. Dr. Burke I am such a huge fan. That Stentless valve replacement for infectious endocarditis you performed? And your use of transmyocardial revascularization? I- I'm Christina Yang. If I could just get the chance to study under you I would be...you are so amazing!

BURKE: Yes well... thank you...

(George is talking to Meredith, who is staring over his shoulder at Dr. Webber, not trying to be rude but, just not interested.)

GEORGE: I mean one of my choices was San Diego. I could have gone to San Diego. But Seattle's home, so... So you're new to Seattle?

MEREDITH: No...I kind of live here. My mother lived here... lives here... and I live in her house.

GEORGE: That's great, cause housing is a nightmare. I'm living with my parents at home, which sucks. (She walks away.) Oh it was nice meeting you!

----------
( Back to the locker room.)

GEORGE: We've been exposed to the plague.

DEREK: They don't know it's the plague.

GEORGE: So the men in the white suits? Just, what, making a fashion statement?

DEREK: No it's a precaution. When the blood work comes back we'll be out of here.

GEORGE: What if the blood results come back and it's the plague? What if we get the plague? Do we die in here with the crappy benches, and the dirty scrubs and the lockers full of food

DEREK: There's food in the lockers?

(Derek searches the lockers.)

GEORGE: Dr. Shepherd, those are people's personal... that's Alex's apple. (Derek bites into it.) That's just rude.

ADDISON: Safe haven laws - all those girls would have had to do was to drop that baby off at a fire station, or a hospital. Now... it's a mess

CHIEF: What are our options here?

ADDISON: Blood typing. We take a sample from each of the girls. The baby's blood type is double O. If the girls are A or B it means the baby's not theirs.

CHIEF: Do it.

----------

MEREDITH: Everyone thinks I'll know what to say to her. I don't know what to say to her. Dark and twisty Meredith. I'm not dark and twisty. And if I am dark and twisty, it's because I live my life under a banner of avoidance. I avoid. I'm an avoider.

FINN: Hello?

MEREDITH: Hey.

FINN: Hey. So can we...uh?

MEREDITH: Izzie. I gotta go check on Izzie.

CALLIE: Don't take it personally. It's the doctor thing

FINN: What?

CALLIE: Four years of high school, four years of college, four years of med school...by the time we gradtuate we're in our late 20's..and we've never done anything except go to school, think about science. Time stops. We're socially Ret*rded. I mean, look at me... I'm in love with a guy that won't say he loves me back, and here I am in his kitchen cooking just hoping that he comes home and notices me. I'm a total freak. I'm that girl in the back of the class who eats her hair. Meredith...she's 17 years old. We're all 17 years old. It's high school with sclapels Finn.

MEREDITH: I don't know what to say to you.

IZZIE: When Dylan died, when the b*mb went off... did you feel like...

MEREDITH: What?

IZZIE: Like you were moving in slow motion?

MEREDITH: He was there and then he wasn't. Like I blinked and he was gone.

IZZIE: I feel like I'm moving in slow motion... like I'm moving in slow motion and everything around me is moving so fast. I just wanna go back to when things were normal. When I wasn't "poor Izzie lying on the bathroom floor in her prom dress with her... her dead fiancé." But I am. so I can't. And I'm... just stuck. And there's all this pressure cause everyone's hovering around me, waiting for me to do something, or say something or flip out or yell or cry some more... and I'm happy to play my part. I'm happy to say the lines and do whatever it is I'm supposed to be doing if it will make everyone feel more comfortable. But I don't know how to do this. I don't know how to be this person. I don't know who this person is.

MEREDITH: Izzie

IZZIE: How did this happen? How did we end up here? Why am I alone? Where's Denny?

MEREDITH: You're not alone Iz.

----------

DEREK: Trail mix and warm soda. Who puts warm soda in their locker?

GEORGE: As usual Christina's to lazy to stock her locker with food.

DEREK: Oh here, I hit the motherload. Look at this. Granola, Cookies, Muffins...who eats this much?

GEORGE: Oh that's Izzie's locker. She ate a lot. Said it kept her energy up.

DEREK: Eats

GEORGE: What?

DEREK: Eats. You said Ate. Eats is present tense. She didn't die.

GEORGE: She feels like she did. She's never coming back here. You know...I don't think she's ever going to be the same.

DEREK: You know there are moments O'Malley. Where all of a sudden in a split second and your life changes forever. Before you know it, you're somewhere else.

CHIEF: Gentlemen.

GEORGE: Chief! Can we please get out of here now?

CHIEF: No.

DEREK: A split second.

----------

(Flashback to when Derek met Meredith at Joe's.)

JOE: Straight Tequila? Really? You are going to be sorry in the morning.

MEREDITH: I'm always sorry in the morning. But tomorrow I start my first day at work, so keep them coming.

DEREK: (to Joe) How you doing? Double scotch, single malt please. (to Meredith) So is this a good place to hang out?

MEREDITH: I wouldn't know, I've never been here before.

DEREK: Oh well you know what, I haven't either. First time in town. I'm new in town. First time in Seattle. I got a job so... Ah you're ignoring me.

MEREDITH: I'm trying to.

DEREK: You shouldn't ignore me.

MEREDITH: Why not?

DEREK: Because I'm someone you need to get to know to love.

MEREDITH: So if I know you, I'll love you?

DEREK: Oh yes.

MEREDITH: You really like yourself, huh?

DEREK: Just hiding my pain. So what's your story?

MEREDITH: I don't have a story. I'm just a girl in a bar.

DEREK: I'm just a guy in a bar.

----------

ALEX: How do you not know your kid's pregnant?

ADDISON: You love your kids. You want to see the best in them.

ALEX: Well then how do you have a baby and throw it in a trash can?

ADDISON: Something happens. You panic.You freeze, and you hide it and pretend like it didn't happen I get that.

ALEX: You get that?

ADDISON: I do. I just don't get what come afterward. I don't get how you go back to class and pretend everything's fine. Everything is not fine.

A Doctor hands Alex a piece of paper.

Alex. It's the blook results. Karen and Lisa are not a match.

ADDISON: And then there were two.

----------

OMAR: Miranda... I'm feeling better. A lot better. I think the fever broke...that's good right?

BAILEY: That's very good Omar.

OMAR: How's Giselle, is she asking for me?

BAILEY: Omar, for Giselle, being exposed to the plague, it complicated things.

OMAR: What things?

BAILEY: We did everything we could.

OMAR: No. No.

BAILEY: I'm so sorry Omar.

OMAR: No... no... no... no.

BAILEY: Omar. Come on breathe.

(Bailey rips at the quarantine tape on the door, but is stopped by the white suit man.)

BAILEY: Stop that! He's hyperventilating, I have to go in there.

MAN: You can't go in there.

BAILEY: Somebody has to go in!

----------

BAILEY: Omar! Can you hear me?

OMAR: I need my wife, I need Giselle! Let me out! Let me out of here!

BAILEY: Look! Omar, Look at me! I need you to put your hands against my hands. Come on.

OMAR: My beautiful Giselle

BAILEY: Look at my hands. Put your hands on my hands. Good. Okay. Look at me! Can you tell me my name? Do you remember my name?

OMAR: Miranda

BAILEY: Miranda. That's right

OMAR: I want Giselle. I have to save her. Please let me out of here.

BAILEY: I wish I could help you, I wish I could turn back the clock and make it yesterday. You don't know how much I wish that. But... I can't turn back time.

OMAR: She was sick, I should have taken over.

BAILEY: I know. Come on...I know. I should have taken over too. But we can't go back. Look even if I let you out of here, you can't help Giselle now.

OMAR: Do you believe in God Miranda? Do you believe in the afterlife?

BAILEY: I have to believe Omar. What I do, I have to believe. That when our time come, we go to a place... a beautiful place... a better place... Omar...

----------

GEORGE: That woman died. She actually died. Is it hot in here?

DEREK: No

GEORGE: Than why am I sweating?

DEREK: Cause you're pacing.

GEORGE: My pulse is rapid.

DEREK: Cause you're still pacing.

GEORGE: Feel me.

DEREK: I'm not going to feel you.

GEORGE: Seriously.

DEREK: Seriously, no

GEORGE: You're an ass. You've lived. You've done things. And you have the hair, and the hot wife. And the beautiful ex-mistress who's pining for you.

DEREK: She's pining for me?

GEORGE: My point is...you've lived. If you die who cares? But if I die, what? This is it? Callie told me she loved me and I just sat there. I mean I wasn't ready. But now I'm going to die and note even get a chance to say I love you back.

DEREK: Do you? Do you love her?

GEORGE: Maybe... eventually... I could. Maybe... one day... soonish.

DEREK: Soonish? I will love you soonish?

GEORGE: You ever tell Meredith? You ever tell her that you love her?

DEREK: No.

GEORGE: I did. I...I'm with Callie. It's different.

DEREK: You should tell her. Even if it's soonish. You should tell her before it's too late

GEORGE: You mean before I die of the plague?

DEREK: Before somebody else comes along.

----------

CALLIE: That I believe... Oh... uh (as Meredith walks in on her talking to Finn) I'm gonna... leave the room for a period of time for no reason whatsoever.

FINN: I don't know what happened last night... between you and Derek ...

MEREDITH: Finn...

FINN: We never said that we were exclusive.

MEREDITH: But you have plans.

FINN: Well I didn't say I wasn't pissed off. I said we weren't exclusive. That's all I wanted to say. Oh and this...I know you think you're scary and damaged.

MEREDITH: Dark and twisty.

FINN: It makes you feel like you don't deserve good things. But you do. And Derek...he's bad for you. But me...I'm a good thing. And if there's a race...if there is a ring...my hat is in...(he leaves)

----------

ADELE: I made an appointment for a reason. I scheduled the time because I had something important to say and you made me wait.

RICHARD: I have a situation Adele

ADELE: I've spent my life waiting. Waiting for you to finish med school, waiting for you to come home at night. Waiting for you to leave that woman. I'm done waiting.

RICHARD: Adele...

ADELE: It's time for you to make a choice: me or this hospital. It's time for you to retire richard.

(Addison talks to the two remaining candidates for the little boy's mother.)

ADDISON: There he is. That's your son. I wan't you both to look at him. Because it's not true you did nothing wrong. You both are wrong. You're wrong for covering this up, you're wrong for lying about it. You're wrong for letting this little baby, this sweet, innocent little boy suffer like this. He's dying and it's your fault. It's both of your faults. Anf the thing is, the truth will come out. In time it will always come out, it always does...it just does. And when it does, this baby will be dead.

GIRL: Shannon...

SHANNON: Don't tell my mom okay?

ADDISON: Thank you. Thank you for telling the truth.

----------

GEORGE: You really don't feel anything?

DEREK: I feel like I've been here very long time. I feel it might be too late.

GEORGE: too late for what?

IDC GUY: Thanks for your patience and cooperation doctors. You'll have to go on a course of antibiotics, but the threat has been contained.

DEREK: Good.

GEORGE: What?

IDC guy: You're free to go.

----------

ADDISON: Poor little guy. The minute he's okay we have to turn him over to a mother who's going to juvie and grandparents who were so clueless they didn't even realize their daughter was even pregnant. Imagine the kind of childhood he's going to have.

ALEX: You can get over a bad childhood. You can have the worst crap in the world happen to you and you can get over it. all you have to do is survive.

----------

GEORGE: Hello?

CALLIE: Oh My God... I was so worried.

GEORGE: I'm fine... I'm fine

CALLIE: I was really worried.

GEORGE: Yeah, well me too.

CALLIE: George, I really love you.

(He kisses her.)

DEREK: Hi

MEREDITH: hi.

DEREK: I was going to come over this morning but uh-

MEREDITH: I heard, the quarantine.

DEREK: Yeah.

MEREDITH: So what does this mean?

DEREK: It means you have a choice. You hve a choice to make. I don't want to rush you into making a decision before you're ready. This morning I was going to come over, and I was going to say- what I wanted to say was...now all I can say is that I'm in love with you. I've been in love with you for...ever. I'm a little late. I know I'm a little late telling you that. But I just want you to take your time...you know. Take all the time you need...cause you have a choice to make. And when I had a choice to make, I chose wrong. All right. Good night.

MEREDITH: Time flies

ADELE: You're not going to retire, are you?

CHIEF: Adele you spring this on me today...I need more time.

ADELE: I don't have any more time to give.

MEREDITH: Time waits for no man. Time heals all wounds.

(Addison pin's Meredith's panties to the bulletin board.)

BURKE: Where have you been all day?

CHRISTINA: Sitting Shivah for Denny.

(She crawls into his hospital bed and lies her head on his chest.)

CHRISTINA: How are you?

----------

BURKE: How are you?

(Christina begins to cry.)

CHRISTINA: Don't ever die...

BURKE: I'll do my best.

MEREDITH: All any of us wants is more time

(Back to the flashback of the mixer when everyone is leaving.)

(George says goodnight to an indifferent Meredith. Alex has Olivia on his arm.)

Izzie (to George) Isn't this so cool. I mean tomorrow we're going to surgeons.

(Back to Izzie on the floor. She grabs Meredith's arm and stands up.)

MEREDITH: Time to stand up... time to grow up. Time to let go.

IZZIE: I'm ready

MEREDITH: Okay.

(Meredith helps Izzie take off her prom dress.)

MEREDITH: Time...
